Why buy art? To answer this question,ask yourself what your reasons are for thinking of acquiring a piece of art. An artwork can cost a considerable sum,but if it meets your needs,it's worth every penny.

Art Is for Enjoyment

 Art is meant to be displayed. Don't ever feel pressured to buy something you won't appreciate looking at day after day,no matter what other people may say. Don't buy something that doesn't appeal to you just because it is trendy (流行的) ，because the artist is famous,or because you have been advised that the artwork will make a good investment. If you don't like the artwork at all,don't buy it!

Art Improves Your Environment

 Have you ever noticed that all beautiful homes have art as an essential part of the decoration? Art lends life and colour to otherwise plain and ordinary walls. A well-thought-out art collection will help create a unique pattern in your home and make it more attractive. For similar reasons,art often graces commercial buildings,such as reception rooms and the offices of top executives.

Art Makes a Statement

 The kind of art you surround yourself says much about your personality,tastes and values. Art truly is a mirror of the soul. It's an expression of who you are. Be true to yourself,and choose art which is meaningful to you.

Art Can Be an Investment

Any recipient (接受者) will appreciate receiving such an exclusive gift,and be honoured that you valued her enough to give her something so unique and precious.
